Explore the voices of African farmers on climate change
International concern about climate change is rising rapidly, but international action lags behind. As world leaders prepare to debate an action plan on climate change in Copenhagen, African communities are already implementing their own survival plans. Climate Frontline allows the voices of these men and women in vulnerable African communities to be heard directly.
Other reports demonstrate the scale of the problem at the global and regional level, and the choices open to the international community. Climate Frontline is different: it allows the voices of men and women in African communities to be heard directly. For these families on the frontline, changing the way they live and farm has not been a choice – they must adapt if they want to survive.
In Climate Frontline they describe, in their own words, how climate change is affecting their lives and how they have responded to a changed environment by building on local knowledge, changing the way they work and diversifying their livelihoods.
